Summary: Good video, lousy audio
Review: Being a Peter Gabriel fan, I was looking forward to watching this DVD. It supposedly is encoded with Dolby 5.1 surround. I was very disappointed. The concert video footage was good, but the audio was horrible. The vocals were muffled and unintelligable and several times one instrument or another would overpower the vocals. I guess this could all be blamed on the fact that it is a "live" recording. Every set has a small "commercial" following it for Amnesty International which is annoying, but I realize that is the whole gist of the disc. Seeing the Dali Lama on stage is a real treat - although I would have loved to hear him say "Rock On, Dudes!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspiring
Review: I found this concert inspiring - a very interesting mix of great music by various great artists as well as hearing from noble men such as the Dalai Lama and the UN Secretary. Because it also serves a very important cause I hope that many people will buy it for themselves and others to enjoy.

Summary: How many editions released??
Review: I have read the other reviews and have been confused as to the discrepancy in quality of the DVD. From what I can gather, there have been multiple releases of this same concert on DVD so I'm wondering if everyone is watching the same edition. I believe I have come across a 1999, 2000, and 2003 editions which could explain such extreme opposite reviews. Can anyone verify or refute my findings? I'm hoping the later editions have the superior sound/video quality. Hoping this helps.

Summary: feest
Review: I would have given it about 3 stars if it weren't for Springsteen. Always eloquent, thoughtful, and socially conscious, he saves this concert from the doldrums of some truly terrible acts. Buy Springsteen's "Born to Run" album if you haven't already. I don't know what the editor was thinking.

Summary: Peter Gabriel's best performance!
Review: Rented this DVD and then bought it based on Peter Gabriel's performance of "In Your Eyes". Unbelievable performance, and I wasn't a PG fan until then. Bruce is great and many others!
